“The graphics are great, storyline also, can't wait to get deeper into it.”
“Incredible graphics, good storyline, love it.”
“I absolutely love the graphics 😎”
“Awful game, poor animation and graphics.”
“There's no settings button in the game; you can't control sound or graphics, and its sound is lame and noisy. That's why I removed it after the tutorial, after about 5 or 6 quests. I hoped that setting options would appear at some level, but they didn't, and I couldn't take it anymore.”
“The graphics make you think it could be an actual good game, but the gameplay does not require a single independent thought.”

Overall, the game is seen as enjoyable but marred by deceptive marketing and monetization practices.
“This is a good game and enjoyable but suffers from aggressive monetization.”

“Not too bad on ads, not too bad on in-app purchases.”
“The game is your usual base upgrade with aggressive cash grab and very very limited resources unless you're willing to spend money for it.”
“The advertisement showed a man digging and bugs coming for him, he then merges with his comrade to take on the bugs as a juggernaut, then combined 2 juggernauts to make an amazing vehicle with a powerful front bit that destroyed the walls in seconds... after I downloaded the game, it was the bog standard pay-to-win idle wait time game, completely different from the advertisement that I was excited about.”
“Saw the prices of in-game purchases and realized it's a huge pay-to-win scam.”
